Scope
- The government is taking several steps to drive payment card usage. For instance, to increase the acceptance of payment cards at merchant outlets, the government introduced a law in January 2016 mandating the installation of POS terminals by individual entrepreneurs as well as businesses involved in trades such as vehicle trade, hotel services, insurance, and education. Consequently, according to the central bank, as of January 1, 2018, 78,700 retail outlets accept payment cards in Kazakhstan, a rise of 19.1% compared to 2016.
- Contactless technology is an emerging trend in Kazakhstan. Major banks including Forte Bank, Eurasian Bank, and Qazkom now offer contactless cards. Most recently in May 2018, VTB Bank partnered with Mastercard to issue Mastercard-branded contactless debit and credit cards to customers. In addition to merchant payments, contactless technology is also used to pay for transportation. In December 2015 contactless acceptance devices were installed at metro stations by Mastercard and ATF Bank, enabling passengers to make contactless payments using Visa- and Mastercard-branded payment cards.
- Alternative payments are also expected to gain prominence, with banks and payment solution providers launching new payment options. In May 2018, Eurasian Bank in collaboration with Mastercard and technology company OpenWay launched a digital wallet called Eurasian Pay. The service allows Mastercard card holders to make contactless payments using their Android phones at merchant outlets. In addition to contactless payments, merchants are also accepting payments via QR code scanning. In February 2018 Visa in collaboration with Kazkommertsbank (rebranded as Qazkom) launched mobile wallet mVisa, enabling users to make QR-based payments. Prior to this the same collaboration launched Homebank Pay in October 2017, a mobile wallet that allows users to make payments by scanning a QR code.
